Thanks for the kind words. If I'm honest I think 'inspiration' may be playing it down a little, I pretty much just ripped off the Google + feedback tool :)

As soon as I saw the G+ tool I knew it was something people would want on their website. I also knew I wouldn't be the only person doing this, which is why I went for a really lean approach, and managed to go from idea to first customers in 2 and half weeks.

I think I should probably add that I didn't rip off any of Google's code, just the idea :)
